Top Insurances in California That Cover Dexcom and FreeStyle Libre
If you’ve recently been prescribed a Dexcom G6, G7, or FreeStyle Libre 2/3 system in California, your first question is probably:
"Will my insurance cover it?"
Good news: many major insurance providers in California do cover Dexcom and Libre CGM systems — but coverage varies depending on the plan, diagnosis, and prior authorization. Let’s break it down.
✅ Common Insurances in California That Cover Dexcom and Libre
Here are some of the top insurers that typically offer coverage for continuous glucose monitors (CGMs):
1. Blue Shield of California
Offers coverage for Dexcom and Libre under many PPO and HMO plans
Usually requires prior authorization
CGMs may be covered under DME (Durable Medical Equipment) or pharmacy benefits
2. Anthem Blue Cross (California)
Covers Dexcom and Libre for Type 1 and some Type 2 patients
Prior authorization and doctor’s chart notes may be needed
Covered via pharmacy benefits in most cases
3. Kaiser Permanente
Coverage available, but more restrictive
Must be medically necessary and prescribed through a Kaiser endocrinologist
Often requires you to pick up from in-network pharmacy or DME supplier
4. Medi-Cal (California Medicaid)
Medi-Cal covers Dexcom G6 and Libre systems
Libre 2 often requires less documentation than Dexcom
May have age-based limits and quantity caps
5. Health Net
Offers coverage on certain Silver and Gold marketplace plans
Prior auth is almost always required
Patients may need to use preferred suppliers
6. UnitedHealthcare California
Covers Dexcom and Libre on many employer-based or marketplace plans
Often part of pharmacy benefits, which helps with affordability
Look for tier info (Tier 2 or 3 drugs may have higher copays)
💬 Still Getting Too Many Sensors?
Even with coverage, many people report getting more Dexcom or Libre sensors than they can use — often due to auto-refill shipments from insurance or suppliers.
